While the CPU cooler itself doesn't require a fan it looks like it
might require a fair bit of air moving past it to be effective, so
something is going to have to move that air. Whether the fan is
mounted on the CPU cooler or elsewhere on the case make much
difference IMHO.
Well designed ball-bearing fans can be incredibly quiet, especially
if you slow them down below full speed. Unfortunately they can be as
as hard to find as an honest politician.
Have you thought about installing your machine elsewhere besides the
bedroom, and just piping the video/audio/control to the BR TV set ?
